Go dig my grave both wide and deep Place a marble stone at my head and feet And on my breast a snow white dove To tell this world that I died for love Oh Lordy Lord, Oh Lordy me Oh Lord, oh Lord, Oh Lordy me She went upstairs for to make her bed And not one word to her mother said Her mother, she went upstairs too Saying “daughter oh daughter What troubles you?” “Oh Mama dear, I cannot tell, That railroad boy that I loved so well He courted me my life away And now with me he will not stay” Oh Lordy Lord, Oh Lordy me Oh Lord, oh Lord, Oh Lordy me Her father, he came home from work, Saying “where’s my daughter? She seemed so hurt” He went upstairs for to give her hope And he found her hanging by a rope Oh Lordy Lord, Oh Lordy me Oh Lord, oh Lord, Oh Lordy me He got his knife for to cut her down And in her bosom these words he found; Go dig my grave both wide and deep Place a marble stone at my head and feet And on my breast a snow white dove To tell this world that I died for love Oh Lordy Lord, Oh Lordy me Oh Lord, oh Lord, Oh Lordy me

‘Derry is such a beautiful city. I’ve fallen in love with it over the past year, while falling in love with a woman who hails from it. Here’s to better times ahead and saying goodbye to bombs and bullets once and for all.’ – Lyra McKee Today we stand with her, & Derry & Belfast.
Oh, my life is changing everyday In every possible way And oh, my dreams It’s never quite as it seems Never quite as it seems
I know I felt like this before But now I’m feeling it even more Because it came from you Then I open up and see The person falling here is me A different way to be
Aah, la-ah-la-ah La-la-la La-ah-la-ah
I want more, impossible to ignore Impossible to ignore And they’ll come true Impossible not to do Possible not to do
And now I tell you openly You have my heart so don’t hurt me You’re what I couldn’t find A totally amazing mind So understanding and so kind You’re everything to me
Oh, my life is changing everyday In every possible way And oh, my dreams It’s never quite as it seems ‘Cause you’re a dream to me Dream to me
